Counting is a Public Necessity.

An eccentric justice of the peace before
whom citizen had prosecuted his daughters
lover for ejecting him from his own parlor
on the Sunday evening previous, solemnly
decided as follows: 'It appears that this
Young Teller was courtin' the plaintiffs girl
in plaintiffs parlor, and that plaintiff in
truded and was put out by the defendant.
Courtin' is public necessity, and must not
be interrupted. Therefore, the law will hold
that parent has no legal right in room
where courtin' is afoot, and so the defendant
is discharged and plaintiff must pay cosst."

remarked an old soldier Wednesday, gazing
at picture of the battle of Mission Ridge

Did you lose your limb in the battle of Mis-
sion Ridge2''.
"No, SIR" replied the veteran, while the
fire of patriotism flashed from his steel-gray
ukee."-Nesoman Independent.

when one little fellow answered up: Il

God and You

The venerable Admiral Z -, When
far advanced in years was appr sached
one day in a public place by y. youth
whose zeal outran his discr elton.
Have you n reliy. .on, admiral"
demanded the young nan.
None to speak of, sir" was the
prompt reply.
The probe IN set before most young
Christians is, What to do with their
reiigio'e Is it to be the motive power
VI u cir words and deeds, and yet to
DC kept a sacred secret, never to be
spoken Of? Or is it to be talked Of on
every occasion? One may well govern
his whole life by his faith and hope in
Christ, yet will never speak Of that
hope, I'VE to his nearest friend;
another talks familiarly of his feelings
and experience to every stranger.
Had a child to %train," said a
great French preacher, al would make
God alive to him. would say, There
are three of us in the field now; you,
l. and III Heavenly Father or. Two
will! be in this room while you sleep;
you and God"
Thus to live consciously in the con-
slant presence of God does not imply a
| vulgar and blasphemous familiarity in
Il thought or mention OF Him. In
fact, the impertinent and incessant
chatter Of sacred names and ideas in
some so-called religious circle shows
n total lack Of comprehension of the
Infinite and Eternal Power. in whom
all the life and death of the universe
rests.
In the simple homes of Scandinavia
peasants, the wise and aged father j.
regarded as the dominating power.
His teachings, his tastes, his slightest
wish gives q rule Of action to the whole
household. But this tender reverence
does not argue u vulgar familiarity,
but the reverse.
One person in a house, who has a
lofty conception of God and pure ideas
of life, can lift the whole family to that
level, just as the leader of an orchestra
strikes II ringing keynote to which
every musician conforms until the har-
monv is perfect.
A stranger, entering n household
knows ~instinctively whether the key
note there is high or low. There are
homes, ~atluent in wealth and culture,
where the discords are incessant, and
the meaning of life no higher than that
of the brutes. Bat no symphony can
compare with the significance of daily
life, in a family of gentle words and
noble conduct.
